This week I had my wisdom bolts removed. I think it’s the equivalent of human wisdom teeth.

As I get older, my body parts need replacing. When I’m getting something replaced, I invariably find an add-on somewhere in the computer store. Maybe it’s a new cable, or maybe it’s more data storage. But I always think to myself, “Well, since I’m here anyway!”

Since I’ve added so much extra metal to my body, they sometimes have to remove now useless parts. Like my wisdom bolts.

It’s a quick and easy fix, but the recovery time is a little longer than usual for a robot. I’ve been depleted of most of my energy this week, so the Watsons have let me rest on the couch and take control of the remote.

We’ve been watching a lot of Downton Abbey and Futurama.

What? A robot can’t like a British period drama? Or a cartoon about… robots?

Thankfully, today I was feeling a bit better. Good enough to make these amazing doughnuts, anyway. It’s such a fast and easy recipe, and it always impresses the humans.

3. Spoon the batter (or you can pipe the batter, it’s your preference) into the doughnut pan, filling each cavity half full. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until doughnuts are set and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Transfer to wire racks and allow to cool before glazing.
